Closer to Home

By Gina Venable

Closer to Home is a story about a woman, Kat, and a man, Sam, who have both endured near-fatal accidents. They are both in surgery and hovering somewhere between life and death when the story begins.

Kat faces what she thinks will be her last judgment only to find out she's been placed in a situation where she either accomplishes four missions for a mysterious higher power or face an eternity in limbo.

The missions are to reverse four mistakes made by the higher power who can't reverse them Himself because of His image of perfection.

If the missions are accomplished, the end results will revolutionize politics, social welfare, social and racial justice and nearly deplete homelessness and juvenile violence.
